SUMMARY:To the Cloud with SQL Server Data Tools
DESCRIPTION:In this session we will provide an overview of how the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) can
be leveraged as a cloud development and migration tool. Learn how easy it is to
deploy an on-premise database to the cloud using SSDT and get insight into best
practices and compatibility issues when migrating from on-prem to SQL Azure. We
will also cover how SSDT integrates with the SQL Azure Management Portal,
Import/Export service, SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) by leveraging the
DACPAC schema format.
